Donald Trump should accept the result of the US election if he loses decisively to Kamala Harris, Nigel Farage has said.
The advice from the MP and friend of the former president came on the eve of one of the most highly charged US elections in modern history.
In an interview with The Telegraph during a visit to the former president’s home in Palm Beach, Mr Farage said: “If it was clear and decisive then maybe it’s time [for Trump] to go and play golf at Turnberry.”
He added that Ms Harris could also move to quell any potential unrest if she wins the election by pardoning Trump once in office.
US braced for possible civil unrest
Washington, DC and much of the US was braced for possible civil unrest amid fears of a repeat of the Jan 6 insurrection and attempts to overturn the election results.
Mr Farage told The Telegraph that if Trump loses he should move on for the sake of US democracy rather than claim the election was stolen as he alleged in 2020.
He said he did not accept Trump’s version of the 2020 election. “I have never gone along with the stolen election narrative,” he said and he was happy to tell that to Trump’s face. “Let’s hope and pray that is not an issue this time. If it [the outcome] was clear then Republicans have to accept the result.
